Thought I'd post this. Guy bought it in 1973 for $2200 and a Galaxie trade.

The restored GT 500 that is referenced in the video is mine, or was until 3 years ago. I purchased it in 1984 and restored it. The engine shown is a 2x4 427, so not correct but looks close.  Rick

Only thing I ever saw in those mountains was a bear.
And a cool natural rock slide canyon thing that is now commercialized.

Then it's obvious you don't get around too much ::)

I live here and some of the most beautiful land in the country.

Try coming back some time BF, have a more positive attitude and enjoy it ;)
